Featured review
Mostly interesting as a look into animation itself.
This short film, featured on The Animation Show 2005, is definitely something that's obviously an artistic endeavor, though it's a little unclear as to what the actual point to it is. It discusses Pan, one of the Greek Titans, to which is voiced-over a poem by Robert Frost (?). Instead of just being a straightforward animation, the animator himself is shown often leaning over the paper and and drawings, or the drawings are spread across a road, or the the like.
The movement is the point, as the world seems to shoot around the animation, typically of tree swaying in the breeze and birds flying, which presents of course a nature/technology dichotomy that's interesting, but of course is hard to really understand why it's there. It works mostly as an exploration of movement, movement of many things including the persistence of vision and how individual frames become motion in the human mind.
Definitely interesting to look at and well done, very artistic, but a little odd and oddly structured.
